No one is hiding from Karim Benzema, architect of the Champions League title that Real Madrid lifted against Liverpool in the final in Paris. The forward closes out the best season of his career with records and performances that propelled him toward the first Golden Ball of his career. The winner of the most prestigious individual award in the world of football will be announced on October 17 in Paris, but the 2022 Ballon d’Or already has a name and surname: Karim Benzema.
The Frenchman became the top scorer in the League with 27 goals, earning him his first Pichichi trophy, and leading his team to sing the roster four days early. In the Champions League he became the main architect of the Fourteenth conquest.
His impressive performances against PSG, Chelsea and Manchester City, where he scored 10 goals in six knockout games, have been key to the historic comeback that Carlo Ancelotti’s team has completed towards the grand final in Paris.
At the Stade de France, he ended his extraordinary campaign, the best of his successful career, performing at a high level despite failing to score.
In a course where Madrid ended up as great winners, no one like his great star deserved a Ballon d’Or who this year, unlike almost all of his predecessors, did not admit any kind of discussion.
